National Hospital denies referring Actor Zack Orji to a private clinic

Zack Orji, a veteran Nollywood actor, was not sent to a private hospital by the National Hospital Abuja (NHA).

This is stated in a statement that the Chief Medical Director, through NHA spokesperson Tayo Haastrup, signed.

According to ZINGTIE, the seasoned Nollywood actor became ill and was hospitalized.

According to a hospital spokesman, the actor was stabilized and transferred to the ENT ward after being taken in on New Year’s Eve and admitted to the intensive care unit.

Later on, according to Haastrup, he was moved to the orthopaedic ward, where doctors started getting him ready for surgery.

He stated, “The attention of the National Hospital Abuja has been drawn to a publication insinuating that the Apex hospital referred the Nigerian Actor Zack Orji to a private hospital in Abuja.

“To set the record straight, the actor, who was brought in on New Year’s Eve and admitted to the intensive care unit, was stabilized by National Hospital Abuja and moved to the ENT ward. Later in the day, he was transferred to the orthopaedic ward, where our surgeons began preparing him for surgery.”

He claims that all of the plans for Orji’s surgery were foiled by the “Leaving Against Medical Advice” form that Orji’s relatives signed on January 1, 2024.

He remarked that the hospital’s management hoped for a quick recovery for the seasoned actor.
